Hi, folks. Here is a sturdy all-purpose knife. Use it for making guppy filets or to defend yourself against Bengal tigers:
Blade Length: 5 9/16"
Overall Length: 10 11/16"
Width At Front of Sharpening Choil: 1 1/4"
Thickness Of Blade In Ricasso: .174"
Heat Treat: Paul Bos for 58 HRC
Slightly convexed bevel. Cutting edge set at 20 degrees per side and sharpended free-handed.
Handle: G-Flex epoxy, canvas micarta from Gagarin Phenolics, nickelsilver pins.
Sheath: Hermann Oak tooling leather vinegarooned and waterproofed with Sno-Seal. It is a tight-fitting sheath; you need two hands to unsheath the knife. The holes at the bottom of the sheath are not eyelets: they are just drilled and reinforced by saturating in and around them with superglue.
There are cosmetic imperfections which are visible in the pictures: scratches on the left-side bevel, a little discoloration in the plunges, and some white lint that stuck to the Sno-Seal.
Asking $145, which includes Priority Shipping anywhere in the USA. I am sorry that I am not able to ship to other countries at this time.
First "I'll take it" gets it.
Thank you for looking and feel free to ask questions
